William James Welburn
William James Welburn, the oldest known child of Mary & George, was born circa 1834 in the farming community of Blackwater, Baltimore Hundred, Sussex County, Delaware. He was enumerated in his father's household in the 1840 Federal Census. The 1850 Federal Census was the only time William's name was actually written by a census taker.
On February 16, 1857, William wed widow (or divorcee) Hester A. "Hetty" Hall-Melvin at the home of her father Charles Hall. The ceremony was conducted by a local white Baptist minister named Rev. Lemuel Hall. When Hester married William, she already had one daughter, Mary A. born in 1850, which she claimed was William's child (see Declaration for Pension in William's early documents).
On October 19, 1864, 3 years after the Civil War began, William J. Welburn was drafted into the Union Army in Wilmington, Delaware. He served with Company H of the 29th U.S. Colored Infantry. His CMSR (Compiled Military Service Record) described him as 28 years of age, 5'7" in height, with a black complexion, hair, and eyes. On the 27th & 28th of that same month, his Regiment participated in the Battle of Boydton Plank Road (Hatcher's Run, VA). The 29th USCI later served on the fronts of the Bermuda Hundred & Richmond in Virginia and in the Appomattox Campaign before moving to the Rio Grande Valley in Texas.
William was admitted to the Post Hospital at Brownsville, TX with "febris remit", or a remittent fever, and died 5 weeks later on August 23, 1865. He was originally interred in Brownsville National Cemetery. Once the U.S. Army abandoned Fort Brown and the cemetery in 1909, the U.S. Government had the overwhelming majority of those buried reinterred in Alexandria National Cemetery in Pineville, Louisiana, while the remaining were transferred to Fort Ringgold.
William never met his youngest child, William James Sherman Welburn. After learning of her husband's death, Hester left her younger children in the care of various Welburn & Hall relatives while she found domestic work in Philadelphia, PA. Daughters Mary, Maria, and even Hannah Kate eventually joined her. When Hester finally returned to the Baltimore Hundred, she was able to establish a 70-acre estate on the west side of Collins Creek with homes for her children. On a Sunday in February 1893, Hester's house was destroyed by fire. Hester was one of few Welburns in Delaware with a last will and testament. She died July 11, 1912 at the age of 76.
William & Hetty had 5 children together: Mary A., Maria Elizabeth, Hannah Kate, George Lane, and William James Sherman. William also had another child, ironically named Hetty, with an unknown woman, but his wife Hester helped raise the child until she left for Pennsylvania. In the 1888 Declaration for Pension as a war widow, Hester included Hetty as one of William's children, but admitted that she was not Hetty's mother and didn't know when the child was born (see Declaration for Pension in William's early documents). In addition to her oldest daughter Mary, Hetty also had a son, Harry Leonard Welburn, in 1878.
